Arabic language prob in admin cp

Ghanem · January 27th, 2006, 10:39 AM

Hi,

I have a problem with the Arabic charachters in the admin cp page only when I click on edit categories and also after selecting a cetegory then editing it..
It shown for example as: ÇáÓíÇÑÇÊ instead of السيارات
there is no problem in viewing it in the main classifieds page..

Regards

Hello well the main site loads a different character meta for arabic. Your admin is still operating on english right. This would inturn be the issue.

You can edit your adm-inc.php file to include the arabic character set

Thank you for your fast reply, but I have done this allready which fixed showing my name in arabic..

another example, when I click on edit Ad types, I have changed them all to arabic and no problem..

This is why I mentioned I get the problem only when I click on the link edit categories..

Hi,

sorry, any clues..

Well our admin panel is not written for arabic language.

You might now show html in arabic but you are going to show in edit boxes what is stored in the mysql database directly which is more than likely what you see when you look at the input box. The html will show converted but not something that is pulled directly from the database.

if in the same file with this shortcut:
adm-misc.php?admact=adtypes send arabic characters and can read them..

why is it only when I click this link
adm-misc.php?admact=admcats&ppaction=cats to edit categories the problem accoures

Could be the routines we run on that variable to convert html that can exist in this variable which is a normal function of the program. Maybe your arabic does not like it.

You can try removing these lines from adm-misc.php other than that I do not know what else to say.

You can discuss any code modifications you wish in the modifications forums. However as a company we can not support any modification from our default code.

Thank you very much, that have solved half the problem..

After I change to:

Code:

Content visible to verified customers only.

The part after I click the edit link is read correctly.
So what about the part before, which is when I click Edit Categories please..

screenshot attached for it.

Chuck S · May 28th, 2010, 10:04 AM

The file would be adm-cats.php as this is a very old discussion the file use to be adm-misc.php as the post states

majed · June 18th, 2010, 03:47 AM

any help for that

Chuck S · June 18th, 2010, 09:15 AM

well I think I would have to read up on the ajax because all that does is use ajax to load the new photos in the page your language encoding should be the same IMO.

majed · June 23rd, 2010, 01:32 PM

any solution for this Chuck ?

or i can stop the ajax in this time

Chuck S · June 23rd, 2010, 04:28 PM

You can alter the display_gallery function in pp-inc.php file to remove those ajax links if you wish.

Since the page header is not refreshed your meta encoding should still be fine to display arabic so I honestly cant guess why it would display like that.

majed · June 24th, 2010, 03:32 AM

aha can u plz tell me what to do exactly to stop it

i just remove the function form pp-inc but the page displayed without the photos just the sidebar
